Today we et the Minola family, a father and his two diagnostically opposed daughters, Katherine and Bianca.

Bianca:

She is said to be beautiful.

Everybody loves her.

She has a line of suitors.

Katherine:

She is the elder sister.

She is a shrew.

She has a wicked tongue and a quick wit.

Baptista has determined that Bianca cannot be married until Katherine, her older sister, is.

Lucentio, a traveler in the area, has come to Padua to learn philosophy, but his friend Tranio wants to be sure that they have fun while they are here, too. Upon hearing the conversation between the Minolas, Lucentio determines that this situation is very interesting.

(Read this part in a cheesy soap opera voice.)What Happens Next?WILL Lucentio weasel his way into the family?WILL Bianca truly learn to enjoy the inside of the house, where nobody gets to woo her?WILL Sly ever realize that the Lord is being a jerk to him?WILL Katherine EVER be nice?

TUNE IN NEXT time for the exciting continuation of...TAMING OF THE SHREW.
